The grants are part of a $26.5 million Investing in our Koalas policy.

Earlier this year, the state launched a three-year, $22.5 million Koala Habitat Program, earlier to target degraded koala habitat for acquisition and rehabilitation.

More than 70 applications for the Koala Habitat Program have been received to date and South-east Queensland landholders have another two weeks to lodge expressions of interest with submissions closing on October 31.

Applications for the rescue and rehabilitation grants opened on Friday and will close on December 7.
